GemRock Posted February 11, 2007 Share Posted February 11, 2007 I need to be able to have longer names for my categories and sub categories. Is this possible and where do I change it??? TIA Rick If the default 32 letters are not long enough for you, then you could change it to a value of your choice via phpMyadmin, table categories_description - field categories_name. Be aware thou long category name could cause problem in your shops layout.

jonquil Posted February 11, 2007 Share Posted February 11, 2007 Please back up your data base first :) Log in to your phpmyadmin and navigate to your data base (oscommerce is default name). Click on the "categories_description" table. "categories_name" is, by default, varchar(32). You can edit the Length/Values to suit. jon It's all just ones and zeros....
